Not true. Software rendering refers to the display of 3D objects in OpenGL. Unless you have a very strange setup, mplayer won't be using OpenGL to display video data.

I've got a box with a geforce 5200 LE, and it displays video just fine if I use the "evil" Nvidia driver. The "nouveau" driver (which you probably have) isn't quite ready for prime time.

I get the driver from the Nvidia website, but it can also be yummed from the rpmfusion-nonfree repo.

I used yum.
Thanks.
Life is better now.
